Gated access to an established driveway meandering through the property to a wonderful 1 acre pond. Pond is stream fed w/overflow & has a cleared picnic/play area. Town Farm Brook runs through the property & a new bridge has been recently installed. Driveway is off a year round town maintained road. Many likely home sites with several delightful spots sitting above the pond. Soil testing indicates the likelihood of an in-ground septic system supporting a 4 bedroom home.

No zoning in Washington on lots over 1 acre. Hunt & fish on the property, plenty of deer, bear & moose sign; dozens of rubs in the hardwoods.
